I just wish folk understood that all you need are "boots on the
ground" for this statement to be untrue, and for that matter, it's not
clear how secure this thing is in the first place.

"2) Because it's a safe way for people to communicate with there being
very little risk of messages being read by unwanted eyes."

That said, it does make things more difficult from mission control at
a central point to do things, but near as I could tell, the sdk could
be used for anything, including bridging stuff back to the internet.

That said, I really miss "bump" -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_(application) and perhaps this is a
way to get some of that back.
